[TPCShauna]

I'm in! I would like to do Favorite Place at a Disney Park.

Thanks for starting the thread!

Cheers!

 

[PigletsPal]

I want in please----how about: Funniest Character picture

 

[piratesmate]

Hey - MsSocks here. Deb has computer problems so I am bumping this for her!

 

[sweet maxine]

I'm giving this a bump to the top so anyone interested can see it. I think it's still wide open for anyone to join. Let's see if we can get it filled up for piratesmate.

 

[WDWMom]

I'm in. How about what characters are your family members like.

 

[mickeyschickie]

i want to join too...but i'm not sure of my theme yet...i'll need to think on it overnight...i want it to be a good one...

 

[piratesmate]

bump


Can't we talk a few more of you into joining us????

 

[piratesmate]

Bumping again...just trying to keep this from falling into oblivion.

If we don't get enough people we'll have to talk about what to do....either put it off for a few months & try again, or maybe just do it for less than a year.

 

[TPCShauna]

I was thinking we might want to wait a couple of months and try again during the summer. People might feel more willing to take something like this on once school has let out.

Thoughts?

 

[Twigs]

I might consider joining this group too. I just have to decide whether it would be too much for me.

 

[piratesmate]

Would waiting until school lets out be a deciding factor for you Twigs? I have no problem waiting. DD & I just signed up for the Ride Swap, so I'll have plenty to keep me busy in addition to my other scrapping. DD will do it herself, but if she's true to form she'll want me sitting with her for support & occasionally input.

She's funny. She didn't want to join the Circle Journal group, but is seriously considering doing it with her friends as the craft for her b'day party. We'll see.

 

[PigletsPal]

Waiting won't be problem for me either.

 

[pattyT]

If im not to late I am in!

 

[piratesmate]

If im not to late I am in!

Hey, you're back! Did you have a great time? (I know - silly question...you were at WDW! )

Anyway, you're not too late. In fact, with you & Twigs and possibly Sweet Maxine we still only have 8. I'm thinking maybe we'll push it back a bit as TPCShauna suggested.

Now that the frenzy of Ride Swap sign-ups are over maybe a couple more people will sign up. If not, I'll try again in a couple weeks.

 

[dizney-cruiser]

depending on how much you delay this - im thinking i might want to be in too - im having a ton of fun working on my first one!! put in me in as a place holder with "favorite disney character" since i wasnt able to get that topic for the first round

thanks!

 

[piratesmate]

How about each person who has expressed interest and/or sign-up for this send me a PM with your "do-able" dates?

I know a couple of us don't care about putting it off, but how late is "too late"? For those that have said "later is better" let me know how much later. OK? Let's see if there is a concensus.

Thanks!

 

[sweet maxine]

Can you add me tentatively as "My Favorite Disney Resort"?

 

[TPCShauna]

My dates are pretty open. I'm only planning to do one class a semester in summer and fall so I should have less homework. Also, my Girl Scouts are taking the summer off so I will be less busy then as well. Pretty much anytime is good for me!

 

[WDWMom]

Any time is good for me. If you are going to wait though, wait until Mid June. With all the swaps going, I have a lot to do.
